The people of this, city sincerely, trust, that the report is true. No more gratify- ing event could occur. The welcome extended would be the genuine gne of greeting to our own people and mak ing room and assigning them places at the home fireside, They are our own people, our interests. are. mutual and our prosperity bound up together, So long as old Mother Earth yields from her storehouse the vast mineral treasures, she hag. so. generously. be- stowed in recent years there will be a City of Casper and a Midwest Refin- ing Company and they will grow great together The administration of the business of the Midwest Company should be located at or near, the scene of produc: tion and manufacture. The economy of such arrangements is obvious and the wonder is that the Company, has not heretofore seen the advantage. We congratulate the Midwest.

The day was. when the United States Dosteffice Department. was. pointed to. 49 an example of the most. perfectly conducted, wisely administered and the. most prompt and service rendering bus- iness institution, public or private, in the world. It was one of the proud- est boasts of any American citizen that he could receive and send his mail with the greatest promptmess and reg- ularity. Its. safety was a hoysehold word, In the case of incoming mail, it was. sorted enroute so as to facilitate its instant distribution: to. patrons. of the local postoffice, There were no delays in that day. No difference the hour, day or night, when mail was received it was pounged upon and distributed. Errors were closely checked and explanations de- manded. Merits and demerits were giv- en. There was a competent head to the institution and, loyalty, enthusiagm and service to the public from, the Post master General down to the humbiest clerk or majl carrier. It. was a, onedit to belong to the postal establishment land and the Bighteenth amendment bbe gens will appear news and short pears Mwiee ‘to. Hérehais, thelz smlespeople, and. business men the different’ articles of wearing apparel | for her little ones when they might all be included in the'one department. “E believe: in. concentrating on one or selected the: moistest rome possible un-| check ‘them ,up for accuracy when two good lines of a particular type of der the changed conditions since last they, attended, a Democratic family gathering. A night's run fropy New York crosses ithe Canadian. border early the next Morning, then westward on the Ca- nadinn Pacific with frequent oases along@, the journey. Canada is not dry 8nd, prices there are. the normal prices Prevailing in this country. previous to the great drought. In the. prairie’ provinces, of Mani- toba and Saskatchewan Tammanyites. ‘wilt pass thru the great grain growing Section, of the. world with, rye and bar- ley, waving, welcome as far as. the, eye }can reach.

Here a beet is chart- ered and stocked, a charter condition being that the captain keep his. ship beyond the. three-mile limit on the. voy- age to Frisco, When, that city is reach- ed and Tammany is again under the Jumigdiction, of the Bighteenth amend- ment, it is arranged that all evidence will have been consymed, Following the thirst-produeing work of the convention Tammany will return to New York by way of the Panama canal with. stop-over privileges at Ha- vana. The same precaution wilk be observed: on. the Atlantic seaboard as ‘on, the Pacific. with reference to the three-mile limit. Arriving in New York bay the vessel will] be anchored in the suburbs until the supply is completely exhausted: The boat will then proceed: to her dock and Tammany will disembark, confident of a duty well performed and conscious of a country well served. A GLOOMY GROUP The Republic of Switzerland is not happy these times, not because of any fault of her own, but begause she has fallen heir to most of the kings, queens, jacks, tens! and so on down to deuces, discarded by the conquered countries in the recent game of war in which most nations held chips. For seme time past these fallen nobles have poured into the country, filling up the hotels and giving a settled air of mel- ancholy, to the sogial landscape. There is not. a cheerfu). onc, in the, entire group, for they have lost their jobs of kinging, queening and princing and @on't know how to do anything else, Their style of acting is not popular with the public, hence they are not even. desirable to the movie magnates. It is altogether a very forlorn bunch, coming in to see the actual goods that were illustrated and described in the Store's advertisements? ‘Two rather in- | teresting questions. for any retailer to have answered, aren't they? — Robert J. Betts, advertising manager for Oster, Bros, Furniture Company of Birmingham, Als, thought so, and adopted a, noxel plan of action on the view to, at least getting a line en the proper answers to the questions already stated, as well as driving home the point which he had made from. time to time that Oster's ads were “100”. per cent truthful, * a First of all, he called up a dozen women customers of the store with whom he was well acquainted and ap- pointed them his, official “ad critics.” He, asked them to watch Oster’s ads and to see if they could catch him in a}, misstatement or ‘ him in any way how: the style of the ads couldsbe improved so ag,tg. make them more in- teresting and appealing to women. In payment of their services he offered to give them a $3 “discount check” for) every helpful suggestion they sent in or for any misstatement they caught in any ad. All criticisms, however, had to be written and mailed in. While this naturally was an inducement to these. particular women to look for things sal criticize in Oster’s ads, Betts knew human nature well enough to be. pret- ty well satisfied that his twelve critics | would Jocate, and point out about the same. errors, that any other twelve or | The most unfortunate feature of play- ing host, is that food prices have sgared alarmingly aud the unfortunate cannot pay. their hotel bills, ‘The former kaiger should. by brot oyer, from Holland to view the wreck he has made among his, fellow kings and queens, a number of whom are his relatives. It might cheer him up a bit. ed NOTICE FOR PUBLICATION, State of Wyoming, > 78s. County of Natrona, : Im. the District Court of the Sixth Ju- Aicial. District. . LEONA O.

The big contest was! scheduled to last one//month, and, in- stead of giving a, $3 discount check, | some small piece of novelty furniture was given to each successful critic as a prize. - ° Betts says: “It was the most success- ful ad stunt we ever put on. Criticisms poured in from small towns and coun- | try districts we never dreamed we reached with our advertising. We not} only. got _many tips of genuine value, but we accumulated a fine mailing list, and what is more, we became convinced that women do reail newspaper ads closely, that they like to know! they are reading the truth, and will spread your name and.fame if you stick to the absolute truth.” Window Showed Why Theda Was Barer. . When Theda Bara hit Eugene} Ore.— or rather her film did—a local drx goods man put in one corner of his! window a small piece of imported rib- | bon that sells at $45 per yard. It was i draped over a card to show that’ there’ was’ precious little of it. And that card read: Material for costume worn : by Miss Bara in ‘“————__—,” ? now at the Broadway. That stopped many people and} caused people to talk about the pat- tern, ‘ Rive ants in, Selling e Children. Says Mrs, Ady Lundy Collins of Clarke & Co., Peoria, 111; “One of the first things we did was to change the appearance of the whole | department, putting in new counters | rand display cases, and rearranging the | . I believe that the nationally ad- vertised lines ‘of merchandise are. a great help“to-a department, Thé moth- ers get to. know them by reading their favorite newspapers or magazines and ask for them and it always pays to carry them. Another desirable feature in regard to these goods is that most of the nationally advertised lines will supply you with advertising in the Shape of selling talks that will be a great aid in selling ‘the merchandise, and they have always valuable sugges- tions to. make in regard to pushing their. merchandise and making some especial appeal, to the mothers, “Another valuable aid in this depart> ment is a complete mailing list. In order to augment ours we put qn a con- test offering prizes for the greatest list of natnes ‘of children under 6 handed in during a special period, and more}! than 1,000 names, were obtained, 700 of which were children under 6: One girl was kept busy at the phone for twb days calling up the mothers of these children and asking them to, come to our department the next week to hear the ftee lectures which we gaye, two a day for three days, in regard to the Proper care of children. A hanil-painted comb was presented every child and in order to get this the child must be reg- istered, Which brought our mailing list up to 1,200. “Lam, strong for featuring everything, I can possibly get hold of for the baby boy. There are so many things for the baby girl, but comparatively little attention is paid to. the baby boy. This. not only gets the mothers in, but the daddies also.” § Small Discount Often Doubles Phis Store's Sales, The giving of disequnts, on a grad- uated scale, @ to the amount of a custemer’s purchase, is one of the leading factors in the, increased. trade. enjoyed by. the. ready-to-wear, depart- ment of the H: €. Prange Company | store in Sheboygan,! Wis. The plan is simply to reduce the price on all doubl esales, Customers are informed that if they purchase two garments, dresses, coats or suits, they will be entitled to a reduction, based on the following table: On articles, the price of which is be- tween $5.50 and $7.75 each, a reduc- tion of 1212 cents is allowed on each or a total of 25. cents; on purchases amounting to $7.75 to $12.25, a reduc- tion of 25 cents; between $12.75 and. $20.50 the discount is 50-cents; between $22.75 and $20.75, the reduction totals 75 cents, and on purchasés over $32.50 $t is deducted. Not everybody needs two garments at the ‘same time, but the’ percentage of those jwho buy two in order to obtain he discount is appre- ciable.
